MvC3: You are Defeated: The Magneto Combo Thread

[Shadius]

I’ve been trying to learn Magneto all day and for the life of me I can’t nail this combo:

Midscreen - No Assist Required
S, [j.H, air dash forward, j.M, j.H, land] x 3-4, s.H, EM Disruptor

I can do the S, j.h, adf, j.m, j.h, but after I cant get the launcher off, help :(?

[Hotobu]

The timing for the beginning is really lenient. You can wait until you’ve hit the floaty apex of your jump, or do it almost instantly off your launcher. The important part is the timing between the first H and its subsequent addf H. The timing between your launcher and your first H just determines how long of a wait you have between the addf H and your first superjump. If you start it out higher, there’s a bigger delay between addf H and superjumps for the first two or three reps, but eventually you bring the opponent down to the same spot you would have them if you did it lower and the timing for reps becomes more similar as you get into the 4th-7th reps.

I swear there’s got to be some small niche to this that I’m missing. I can’t even get the H to hit after the addf. Does if you c.H, S, or do you have to just hit S without the c.H? Also does your back have to be in the corner as the vid in the OP shows? (I think I’ve seen it done in the middle of the screen. I can’t figure out what I’m missing.

Your’e not suppose to be doing S after you land,
[j.H, air dash forward, j.M, j.H, land] x 3-4

If you guys are talking about the rom (with nothing but H) then it doesn’t matter what you do before the launcher. Your missing the j. H after addf because you are not leaving a big enough gap in between the first j. H and the addf. So you launch, j. H (I do this as soon as I can), wait a bit (only on the first rep), then addf, j. H.

No, your back does not have to be against the edge either. And you do not have to sj back for it to work. Works if you just sj straight up too.

For now I have given up on this though. I can only get like 3 reps reliably and it sucks when you miss it in a match because you end up sj and giving your opponent a big break from being pressured. I’m just going to stick to S, [j.H, air dash forward, j.M, j.H, land] x 3-4, s.H, EM Disruptor. It’s much more reliable for me.

I can do the first rep, but as soon as I land and I try to do the j.H again It always misses, or either its not a combo any more and they can block it. Anybody have some tips?

[ohsuplol]

can someone make a step by step video tutorial for that rom loop, it would help alot

Yes please! Been putting in a good amount of time trying to learn this, would greatly appreciate a hands video!

[Hotobu]

So I found an interesting throw combo starter with Sentinel’s drone assist it works best if done mid-screen. I say starter because with my execution where it currently is I’m not sure how to maximize the damage after this. If someone else want’s to add onto it be my guest. Hell I’m not even sure if it isn’t just better to do a standard launcher combo… anyway

Throw, dash + drone assist, cr. L. cr. M cr. H -> H. EM Disruptor, H Hyper Grav.

edit: If you throw them into the corner simply replace the cr. H with st. H

[GodOfG_mblers]

Agreed…he also explicitly details that it is not an infinite lol

True, off a naked hyper grav you get 11-12 reps only. As for the ROM and hyper grav corner corner loop hands/tutorial vid i’ll see if I can’t get that done by Tuesday, unless someones already on it.

cool, good info to know…

For those who are having trouble with the H adf MH loop i found a video that has decent audio cues… if you listen to his button presses you’ll get a feel for the general speed of the loop. Of course you can do it faster or slower but hopefully someone will find it helpful.

Anyone seen this combo yet? Looks much easier and does more damage although he doesn’t end it in any supers.

[media=youtube]93ps7_VSJbE[/media]

[Cozby]

Combo looks especially strong, and only uses 2 loops. Gotta check it out to see if it can be extended, unless the plasma deteriorates hit stun recovery.

[themortal]

can someone write the last combo ? I’ve always got trouble to read Mvc3 combos videos thank you !!
the 1st one looks like
air S -> 2H S air_H adf air_H add_S 2H S -> air_H adf air_H add_S 2H S -> LMHS
but i’m not really sure, and for the others, i just cannot tell

(adf=air dash forward, add=air dash downward)

[Penbi]

Themortal, what’s the “2H S”? Take them out and the combo makes sense to me but “2H S” has confused me.
